Bedroom and bathroom were very tired and in need of some deep cleaning and redecoration. The bed was very comfortable and the view was exceptional. The restaurant was somewhat disappointing with its limited and somewhat overpriced menu. However the food was good and Owen behind the bar provided excellent service.
